When a realist with a Roth IRA encounters a free-spirit with glitter in her pocket, an ephemeral connection that feels timeless is sparked. Their once-in-a-lifetime rendezvous leads to a surreal day of ice cream, wishes, and unspoken truths about love, time, and vulnerability. Skepticism clashes with rose-tinted spontaneity in a tender journey that explores living in the moment-- no matter how long it may last-- and letting go of control.
